BIR 2012: Scarlet by A. C. Gaughen



Today I have two great books to feature.  The first book of the day is Scarlet by A. C. Gaughen.  You can find my review here.  This book was a refreshing read that brought the tale of Robin Hood to life in a new and exciting way.  I'm super excited that there will be two more Scarlet books as well.  Here's the Goodreads blurb:


Many readers know the tale of Robin Hood, but they will be swept away by this new version full of action, secrets, and romance.

Posing as one of Robin Hood’s thieves to avoid the wrath of the evil Thief Taker Lord Gisbourne, Scarlet has kept her identity secret from all of Nottinghamshire. Only the Hood and his band know the truth: the agile thief posing as a whip of a boy is actually a fearless young woman with a secret past. Helping the people of Nottingham outwit the corrupt Sheriff of Nottingham could cost Scarlet her life as Gisbourne closes in.

It’s only her fierce loyalty to Robin—whose quick smiles and sharp temper have the rare power to unsettle her—that keeps Scarlet going and makes this fight worth dying for.
Mundie Moms and I have a great giveaway for a copy of Scarlet!
